Chapalac – Vintage

History Chapalac

In 1968, the Chapalac marked the big return of clothing at Chapal.
After having made the hostesses’ outfits in scalloped rabbit skins for Grenoble Winter Olympic Games, Chapal moved closer to the booming French motorsports and promoted a new image. Famous drivers Jean-Pierre Beltoise, Henri Pescarolo and François Cevert were chosen as ambassadors.
According to a drawing by Henri Chemin, Ford France’s communication director, the Chapalac jacket was born.
This unique model made from lacquered rabbit skins is available in blue & ecru white colors following the trends of fashion in the 1970s.
